Go Highlanders…. fark my SuperBru up some more!
Game on!
gbs, Mine too…hehehe. GOOOOOOOOO HIGHLANDERS.
Stephen Donald misses a penalty….
gbs, Going to answer you here. You could be right, maybe no saffa win this weekend. Sharks will have a tough battle against the Reds. Don’t see the Cheetahs beating the Tahs, not without 4 of their top players.
Could be a baaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaad weekend of saffa sides.
4 – Gooooooooooooooo Highlandersssssssssss
Going to get breakfast now. Back during this game.
If the Chiefs win here, they’re right back in the hunt again…. and the Log will be very cluttered in the middle.
Ek het nou so snaakse gevoel hier binne in my, wonder wat dit is, het dit laasjaar laas gehad toe ons teen die Brumbies verloor het. 😉
9@ BiDiBiDi – Ek voel ook nou woes en leeg…. hehehehe
G’day to you, GBS. Howzit? Are you in a state pf apoplexy after the Bulls result? Quite surprised at the outcome, but I remember saying last week when the Blues played the Tahs that this Blues side is indeed a good one and not one to be underestimated. I didn’t get the chance to watch the match, but I’ll bet it had one or two Bulls supporters on the edge of their seats??
Go the Tahs!!!!
10: dit sal ons nou leer om empatie te hê met soveel ander ondersteuners wat die hele jaar so voel !
11@ Oldie – Apoplexy is a mild form of what I have. To be honest, Blues deserved the win.
Drop Goal Robbie Robinson
Landers 3 / 0
Jammer bulle, partykeer moet jy verloor om beter te word. Probeer net bonus punte kry in die proses.
Mooi so, Rob Roy Robert Robbie Robinson van Robinson-eiland.
I’ll catch up again soon, just firing up the BBQ for a great big fresh schnapper with accroutrements, for dinner, then back to watch the Tahs and the Cheetahs.
17@ Oldie – So met ander woorde, jy gaan nou ‘n vis op die braai gooi… hehehe
Penalty Stephen Donald
3 / 3
15: jy is reg Snoek, mens kla nie met die witbrood onder die arm nie, maar Bulle is besig om bonuspunte te vergeet. 3 wedstryde geen bonuspunt nie. Moes ten minste laasweek teen Force en vandag ‘n bonuspunte gekry het.
Vandag se wedstryd wys maar net opnuut, daar moet nog baie water in die see loop, voordat die 4 semi plekke bespreek gaan word. Teoreties staan al die spanne nog ‘n kans, behalwe Force en Leeus. As Landers, Ctahs en Sharks vandag verloor, is dit ook vir hul finaal neusie verby.
Volgende 2 wedstryde vir Bulle en Stormers gaan bepaal of hul gaan speel vir tuissemi’s en of hul sal moet veg bloot vir ‘n semi plek.
Flok, a 3 ALL draw would also go down well…. it would fark my Bru up well and solid….
Try Landers… Hayden Triggs
Landers 8 / 3
17 – Hello Old Griquas, Now you getting us all going again with your braai (BBQ) hehe. Sounds good. Only morning here, so on the coffee and just had breakfast. But a fresh Schnapper, sounds a whole lot better!!
23 – gbs, WoooooooHoooooooooo. Go the Landersssssssss.
Derby games are always the best.
The sun is finally out today after some rainy and muffie days here in the Panne….
Try Stephen Donald for Chiefs
22: Goeie speler, hy is altyd vol triggs !
Chiefs 10 / 8
Try Vanikolo for the Landers… Dagg converts
